#Russia war correspondents do not seem to share Putin’s enthusiasm regarding the “liberation” of #Konstantinivka

Romanov writes succinctly: “Konstantinovka = Kupiansk”. This refers to the boastful declaration by Putin and Gerasimov in January, when they announced “full control over Kupiansk”, after which President Zelenskyy paraded through the town. https://t.me/romanov_92/54456

Pavel Gubarev writes in somewhat greater detail:

As for the ‘captured’ Konstantinovka. It is highly likely that the ‘stripes’ [the generals] prematurely declared almost half the town ‘liberated’, and only then was its capture reported. (…) Currently, on the front line in Konstantynówka, soldiers from reserve units, military specialists and wounded soldiers who have not fully recovered are being ‘scraped together’ for the assault units. An analogy with Kupiansk may well prove entirely justified. With similar consequences. https://t.me/pgubarev/1642
